Abstract :This study aims to examine bibliometrically the postgraduate theses published in Turkey that deal with current teaching methods and/or techniques used in undergraduate nursing education. The research was conducted in January-February 2024 using the database of the Thesis Center of the Presidency of the Council of Higher Education, and open-access master\'s and doctoral theses that addressed undergraduate level education in nursing and included at least one teaching method and/or technique were included in the study. The population of the study consisted of 62 thesis studies and the sample consisted of 27 thesis studies. Data were collected through document analysis data collection method. It was found that most of the thesis studies in which current teaching methods and/or techniques were used were conducted in 2022 (6 theses), at the doctoral level (16 theses), at Ege University and Hacettepe University (4 theses). It was observed that the simulation method (10 theses) was used the most among the current teaching methods/techniques in thesis studies. With the increase in the number of published postgraduate theses, it was determined that the teaching methods/techniques used in undergraduate nursing education diversified and technology gained an important place in nursing education.
